Re: Help with tweaks

[Robert Blackstone]

Hi Evan,

For what it’s worth.
Since I am not yet an experienced user of “regular’ tweaks, I would have used a 
different solution to this problem, i.e. moving the Markup texts to a second 
voice with hidden notes.

I give you my solution here but I have to warn you that I never use \relative 
c’  but always absolute pitches:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
{
 \time 3/4

   R1*3/4 |
   ef'4-._"(du talon.)" r8 bf'-. bf'4-. | 

   << {ef'4-.  g'2_>   %_\markup{\italic "dim."}   \fermata  }  \\ { 
s4\hideNotes d''4_\markup{\italic "dim."} d''8^\markup{\italic "long"} s8} >>  |

   R1*3/4 |
 }
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Best regards,

Robert Blackstone
